Office lighting in Kirkby
Glare-free LED lighting for desks, meeting rooms and receptions. Available across Kirkby and Merseyside. For office lighting in Kirkby we design to about 500 lux on desks, as BS EN 12464-1 suggests, and keep glare off screens by choosing the right optics rather than simply adding more light.
Local office lighting in Kirkby
We usually phase office work in Kirkby over evenings, one zone at a time, so nobody loses a desk while the ceiling is opened up.
Meeting rooms are where Kirkby offices waste most light. Presence detectors that switch off after a set time pay back quickly in rooms that sit empty for half the day.
Our teams travel to Kirkby from across Merseyside. Typical nearby jobs include Fazakerley, Norris Green and Maghull, so we can often combine survey visits.

They are worth it in meeting rooms, toilets, kitchens and stores, where lights are often left on. Daylight dimming along windows also saves energy in perimeter zones.
